Dynamic evolution of satellite DNAs drastically differentiates the genomes of Tribolium sibling species

Damira Veseljak, Evelin Despot-Slade, Marin Volarić, Lucija Lulić Horvat, Tanja Vojvoda Zeljko, Nevenka Meštrović, Brankica Mravinac

The paper examines the dynamic evolution of satellite DNAs in two closely related Tribolium species, revealing differences in centromeric regions and potential roles in genome differentiation.

Long-read genome assembly of the insect model organism Tribolium castaneum reveals spread of satellite DNA in gene-rich regions by recurrent burst events

Marin Volarić, Evelin Despot-Slade, Damira Veseljak, Brankica Mravinac, Nevenka Meštrović

The paper improves the genome assembly of Tribolium castaneum using long-read sequencing and identifies mechanisms for satellite DNA spread in gene-rich regions.
